Shane Long came on as a sub against Liverpool. The game was dire so it was difficult for him to make an impact.

[sligoman]

Seamus Coleman came off the bench and set up Everton's 2nd goal, 2 minutes later.

Robbie Keane, rumoured to be a future Celtic player, got Spurs' 4th from the penalty spot and is supposed to have played pretty well.

He's back at Preston. I thought he moved to Boro'.

[John83]

Gibson started in Man Utd's defeat to Leeds. Didn't stand out in a poor team performance, but he played the full game - staying on the pitch in preference to Anderson when Owen was subbed on late.

[Royal rover]

i thought Doyle played well for dirty Leeds today

[sligoman]

I thought he moved to Boro'.On loan.

[punkrocket]

On today's evidence I'd take Doyle over Gibson any time

[yapster]

Not exactly much to take hope from there is it

Not even for a poster of your burning optimism.

Phew.
I read the thread title and thought we'd asked the FA to include us in the competition as compensation for the Henry handball.

Any word on Leon Best. I see Chris Coleman has repeatedly stated he won't be leaving but does this imply their is much interest in him? Anyone heard anything?

[Leeside Swagger]

I think i saw Stephen Reid line out for Blackburn as well, that loan to QPR was only for a month afaik.

Doyle seemed to change the game when he came on for Wolves too. Hit the woodwork.

[Dunny]

Robbie Keane on for Spurs.

U19 player Greg Cunningham on the bench today for Man City

[stiffler]

Greg Cunningham just on for the start of the 2nd half at left full back.

[Colbert Report]

Cunningham looks massive!

[Colbert Report]

Cunningham gets a yellow two minutes into his senior debut.

[Colbert Report]

I know most people on here hate him, but Ireland looks like Fabregas out there today...

[TrapAPony]

I know most people on here hate him, but Ireland looks like Fabregas out there today...

I hope he comes back tbh but each to their own.

[Razors left peg]

I know most people on here hate him, but Ireland looks like Fabregas out there today...

most people here hate him simply because the little pr1ck has turned his back on his country, not because people dont rate him
